Tommaso Capezzone
PhD Candidate in Economics
University of Turin & Collegio Carlo Alberto
Welcome
I am a PhD candidate in Economics at the University of Turin and a PhD fellow at Collegio Carlo Alberto, under the supervision of Pierluigi Conzo.
My work explores how individual opinions and behaviors respond to their informational and political environment. I examine how experiences such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the provision of information, priming, and exposure to political campaigns shape what people think and how they act. I combine survey and laboratory experiments with large-scale observational data.
I am visiting Cornell University for the 2026 Spring semester hosted by Professor Seth Sanders.
